Sure, we've all had sadistic sex slavery relationships online, luxuriating in the attention from a masked dude who lavishes gifts upon us. But how many of us fly to London to meet them? This daring lady did.

Karley Sciortino, also known by her blogger alter ego Slutever, had kept up a Gmail and videochat correspondence with a Brit keen on humiliating himself for sexual pleasure. Whatever floats your boat! But Karley decided to head over there and check him out up close in the confines of a hotel room—a fun and safe idea. We asked Karley what the hell:

About a year ago, while casually browsing one of my favorite fetish forums searching for an internet slave, I met a submissive guy from London who told me that he was a "cash pig". Cash pig is the BDSM term for someone who gets turned on by being financially dominated, so like being forced to give your money to people. I thought, "Jackpot!" Over time he and I developed a relationship which consisted of him buying me presents and sending me money in exchange for me sending him degrading emails. So basically he would buy me a bunch of books on Amazon and then I would send him an email saying something like, "You are a piece of human scum I hate you!" and then he would buy me some more books, etc., etc.. Because of this, he earned the nickname Book Bitch. For a while Book Bitch even started paying my rent! And I all I had to do in return was virtually abuse him. It was a pretty good deal :)

I never thought I would meet Book Bitch in person, as our relationship was so rooted in virtual abuse. However fate brought us together, and our meeting was a test of whether your URL friends can turn out to be your best IRL friends, too.

Love is a many splendored thing. Watch Slutever in action on her very own web series, and feel free to try out a kinky in person meetup next weekend. But be safe! [Vice]
